YD Frost come back with Lounge Musicthe new album out on Friday 29 May for Atlantic Records Italy/Warner Music Italy.
The project comes less than a year away Silver Pool (925). A trailer that introduces the concept of the album precedes the release.
In the video, the rapper from Southern Milan opens with a phrase that immediately defines the tone of the project: “All you are about to hear is the truth of someone who has watched too long, without ever speakingA statement that accompanies a work built around the idea of social alienation, ostentatious luxury and belonging to a generation suspended between the desire for redemption and a sense of exclusion.
YD Frost talks about the Southern Milan of “Lounge Music”
With Lounge Music, YD Frost try to transform the personal story into collective photography. The album moves inside a Milan made up of status symbols, luxury cars and social codes increasingly linked to appearance, but observed from the point of view of those who continue to feel out of place even when they manage to access certain environments.
The contrast between “street” and elitist imagery had already appeared in the singles Hermit in Hermès And Jockeysreleased in recent months and built around the theme of luxury as protection and social armor. An aesthetic that also returns in the new project, where the rapper talks about a reality driven by performance and the need to always seem up to par.
From a sound point of view, the new album promises to alternate more rap and direct episodes with more intimate and reflective moments. The description of the project talks about a mosaic capable of moving from bangers to more conscious songs, with space for personal relationships, losses and psychological fragility.
The tracklist has not yet been revealed. The pre-order of the album is already active on the official store Warner Music.
